The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 161

Episode 161

“Now.”

When Namgung raised his hands and clasped his hands, Clark stepped on his palm and jumped up.

[Kaaaaa—!!!]

When he swung the [Five Dragon Fist Armor] in the air, the pattern drawn on the armor glowed and four water dragons spewed out.

Poop-!!!

Kwaaaaang…!!!

As the water dragons disappeared, shattering the falling rocks from the sky, Clark turned in the air, landed downwards, and ran after Namgung without delay.

“How much longer do I need to do this…?”

Clark, who was full of motivation at first, now asked Namgung with a pale face and heavy breathing, as if he was tired.

“We’re halfway there now.”

“…Damn, I asked for no reason.”

He shook his head at Namgung’s sword-like answer.

“left.”

Paaah–!!!

However, regardless of the grumbling, he moved without a single error in accordance with Namgung’s command.

And when he moved, Namgung just dealt with the falling rocks from the other side without the slightest hesitation.

A being you can entrust your back to.

To Namgung, that kind of person would be Myung-Hoon, but Myeong-Hoon and Clark had different meanings.

I believe in Myung-hoon’s qualities and strength, but he was someone that Namgung had to protect.

However, Clark was someone who gave Namgoong absolute trust.

The belief that you will not die.

Not having to worry about the back was an element that made Namgung’s battles many times more efficient.

Pot-! Papat-!!!

And as if to show it, Namgoong entered the lava lake, quickly escaping between the fallen rocks that Clark had shattered.

* * *

-The entire fleet begins shelling!!!

-Notify all joint flight squadrons. Concentrate your firepower to prevent monsters from crossing the island.

The Allied Forces, comprised of not only the United States but also Japanese and Russian troops, were pouring in missiles to block the advance of the giant monster.

Kwaaaaang—!!

A torpedo exploded on the giant demon’s bridge, sending spray in all directions, and dozens of fighter planes dropped shells on the monster’s head.

Qua! bang!! Quagga River…!!

Black smoke and flames from the cannonball rose above the giant devil’s head.

However, the giant monster’s speed did not change at all and it just silently walked upwards.

Buuuuu—!!

At that moment, a trumpet sound was heard.

A wooden ship that looked like something from the Middle Ages appeared on the battlefield, breaking through the waves among numerous warships.

“What is that?”

Alek Traman, who was on the island, slightly tilted his head as he looked at the wooden ship that caught his eye.

“Hmm… I don’t know.”

The sight of shells exploding everywhere and spray forming around the wooden ship looked so dangerous that one thought it might sink at any moment.

“Row!!”

However, at the shout of the woman standing at the head of the deck, the wooden ship surprisingly avoided the spray with almost miraculous steering skills and moved near the giant rock.

Buuuuuu—!!

The trumpet sound was heard once again.

Then, water columns rose above the waves, and within them, the shapes of warriors with horned helmets and axes were created.

right–!!!

Warriors made of water on the sea let out roar-like cries and rushed towards the giant demon.

puck! puck!! Puff–!!

The warriors mercilessly struck the giant demon’s legs with their axes and began to climb on his legs.

“…Viking?”

Myung-Hoon looked a little embarrassed by their sudden appearance.

“It looks like the contractor of the Haein clan has moved.”

Alec looked at the water Vikings and then at the woman standing on the deck of the wooden fence.

Beep-!!

He curled his fingers and blew a whistle.

Then a large hawk landed on her shoulder.

“All attack!!!”

At her cry, more Vikings were summoned behind the wooden ship.

“…There are a lot more soul soldiers than your brother, right?”

right-! right-!! right-!!!

More than 100 Vikings jumped out of the wooden boat and rushed towards the giant monster.

“Tie his legs!”

Under the woman’s command, the water Vikings threw axes with ropes and began to tie one of the legs of the giant demon.

Kugggggggg….

The monster’s body swayed.

“Did you really stop it?”

Myung-Hoon looked at Alec and asked as dozens of ropes made of water were tightly tied like spider webs around the giant devil’s legs.

“The numbers are large, but the strength of each individual is far inferior to that of Nangong’s soul soldiers. There is no way you can tie the feet of a giant demon like that.”

However, unlike Myung-hoon, who was surprised, Alec looked at the woman standing on the wooden boat and spoke calmly.

‘Jord… I think there were only 20 people when the Universe Clan was established.’

The general assessment was that the power of the Contractors of the Agent Clan was inferior to that of the Revelators.

However, if you use more than 100 summons, even a Revelator will not be able to easily guarantee victory against her.

‘What kind of magic did they use to increase the number of summons that much? At that level, I think he would be the strongest among the remaining contractors of the proxy clan, excluding Nam So-min.’

The emergence of new power in dealing with monsters was something to be happy about, but Alec was somewhat suspicious of her rapid growth.

‘I understand she hates revelers so much that she doesn’t show up… What’s going on?’

Alec Traman looked at her for a moment and then turned his head.

“We’ll prepare too.”

“But you don’t have any weapons.”

“Don’t you trust Namgung?”

“…what?”

“You said you would bring a sword.”

He said to Myung-Hoon.

“Then I will bring it.”

* * *

“Over there.”

Namgung found the boots on a small altar built on a lava lake.

▶ Use the Primeval Dragon’s Bracelet.

▶ The jewel of petrification is activated.

As the petrified jewel, whose cooldown was full, radiated light from the bracelet, hard stones began to stick to his body once again.

Cheeeeeek…!!!

As I stepped into the lake, black smoke came out and the stones on my legs turned red.

‘I can’t last long.’

He started hurriedly crossing the lake.

“Whoop…!!”

Namgung took a deep breath, closed his eyes tightly, and put his hand into the lava.

Kwahia Ah — !!!

As the lava in the lake swirled, the form of As, who had not yet been summoned, appeared within it.

‘Other soul soldiers would have melted in the heat of the lava, but if it’s the hero-level As…’

As if knowing Namgung’s thoughts, As laid down his huge ax to the side, and Namgung stepped on it and climbed on As’s shoulder.

Cheeeeeek…!!

Despite being a spirit body, the heat of the lake was strong enough to cause damage to As.

“Hold on a little while.”

Even though it must have been painful, As nodded to Namgung’s words. But as he got closer to the altar, his thick armor was slowly melting away.

Paaah-!!!

Namgung stepped on As’s shoulder and jumped onto the altar.

▶ Asterion’s summoning is forced to end due to damage to the spirit body.

▶ Re-summoning is possible after the damaged spirit body is recovered.

Chiiik….

As soon as he jumped onto the altar, As’s body melted into the lake.

“thanks.”

Namgung spoke in a low voice to the disappearing spirit body of As.

At the same time, he landed on the altar.

The altar was made of a material as transparent as glass, and surprisingly, it remained intact even in the midst of lava that was melting even the heroic spirits.

“Gyu-ryu.”

[What’s going on? You’re not calling me just to brag about getting a hidden item, right? Giggles.]

Gyu-ryu appeared at his call.

[Namgoong is also Namgoong, but I never thought he would catch a fire giraffe like that… Even within the Daeja clan right now, there is an uproar.]

“I didn’t even catch it.”

▶ Obtained the Manhwajang (Epic).

Numbering 45

Name: Maenghwajang (猛火長)

Grade: Epic (best)

▶ Boots with a long neck resembling the tail of a fire giraffe.

▶ Boots made by Kalan, the first dragon hunter, to hunt red dragons.

▶ The wearer sets fire to the boots and has fire attribute level 2 resistance and attack power.

▶ By combining special items that go into the sockets of the boots, you can find hidden functions in the boots.

▶ Attached item: Breath of the

Cold ‘Attached item to boots? Wasn’t this the end?’

Namgung tilted his head as he examined the boots he obtained from the altar.

‘Breath of the bitter cold…’

I don’t know if it was fortunate, but it was an item that Namgung knew about.

A Noble Phantasm that can be obtained by defeating the Frost Lady, the boss monster of the 12th Gate of Hell.

“But it’s the complete opposite of Meng Hwa-jang… I wonder if anyone would use this?”

In Carnival, there were items that had to be unlocked through combinations like this.

But just because it was a hidden feature, it wasn’t necessarily a good thing.

If you lose level 2 fire resistance and attributes instead of the additional effect you get when combining 【Breath of Cold】 and 【Fiery Fire】, it could actually be a loss.

‘In the end, it’s gambling… I don’t think anyone can do this easily.’

Namgoong wore boots.

Grumbling…!!!

▶ Grade 2 fire resistance continues.

▶ Grade 2 fire properties persist.

Flames rose from the heels of his boots and enveloped his entire body, and unlike the fierce flames, a warm energy began to surround him.

[Hey, congratulations. I never imagined that I would get the Manghwajang now. By the way, why did you call me? Is it because you really want to show off?]

Gyu-ryu, out of place, started circling around Namgung and clapping.

“It’s crazy. “Stay still.”

[Yes.]

He scratched his head at Namgung’s words.

“Open the bundle.”

[It’s been a while since you visited. I don’t know if there’s anything useful in this situation, but… let’s look for it.]

Gyu-ryu opened the bag and Namgung took down the list without hesitation.

“this.”

Numbering 668.

Name: Dwarf Artisan’s Mineral Pickaxe

Grade: Rare (highest)

Price: 770000 heads

▶ Rock Breaking: Pickaxe of experienced miner Brock. No matter how hard a mineral is, it can be completely destroyed just once by consuming all its durability.

▶ If durability is not at maximum, it is impossible to destroy rocks.

[…What do you plan to do with this?]

Gyu-ryu took out a pickaxe.

“It’s an altar that survived the lava lake. “Of all the minerals available now, there is probably no one harder than this.”

Namgung flicked his finger at the altar where [Maenghwajang] was placed.

[…No way?]

Gyu-ryu looked at him as if he was dumbfounded by those words.

“that’s right. “I’m going to make a sword out of the altar.”

Namgung smiled meaningfully and swung the pickaxe toward the altar with all his might.
